Reasons to Daylight
Daylighting is the most economical and environmentally responsible lighting technique available today. Daylighting:
* Saves money on energy bills
* Connects people to the outdoors
* Makes a statement-that you care about the environment
It's successful.
People thrive in naturally lit environments. Shoppers linger longer and buy more. Students do better on tests. Office workers are absent less often. And that's not all. Daylighting also:
* Slashes lighting and cooling costs
* Pays for itself through smaller, less expensive cooling systems-when it costs anything extra at all
* Doesn't cause glare or heat buildup

Solar Tube Skylights
Skylights are a great addition to any house, as they bring in more natural light - cutting down on artificial light electricity costs, as well as promoting good health for a home's occupants. Unfortunately, however, skylights are hard to install in most pre-built homes because they require so much roof real estate. Also, unless the sun is at the right angle and there are absolutely no clouds in the sky, skylights don't always illuminate a space in a way that makes their cost worthwhile. Thats why we love Solatube - a smart technology which takes skylights one step further by refracting, reflecting and concentrating solar light into a small tube using mirrors and lenses.
